Descrição

Radiant Goniopora ‘Arctic Yellow’: A Luminous Centerpiece for Your Reef

Bring a burst of sunshine to your marine aquarium with the stunning ‘Arctic Yellow’ Goniopora. Its vibrant, swaying polyps create captivating movement and unparalleled visual appeal.

Overview
The ‘Arctic Yellow’ Goniopora, also known as Flowerpot or Daisy Coral, displays an intense, often fluorescent yellow coloration. This Large Polyp Stony (LPS) coral features numerous delicate, flower-like polyps that extend from its calcareous base, creating a soft, flowing aesthetic in your reef tank. While generally peaceful, its longer polyps can extend, requiring ample space from other corals to prevent stinging.

Care Level
Goniopora corals are considered moderate to advanced in care, requiring stable water parameters and attention to their specific needs. They thrive in established reef aquariums with experienced aquarists. Despite being photosynthetic, consistent supplemental feeding is crucial for their long-term health and vibrant coloration. They are generally peaceful but need space to prevent potential stinging of neighboring corals.

Tank Essentials
A minimum tank size of 115 litres (30 gallons) is recommended for Goniopora corals. They prefer moderate water flow, ensuring polyps sway gently without being blasted by direct currents, and moderate to high lighting (100-200 PAR). Maintain stable water parameters: temperature 24-27°C (75-80°F), pH 8.1-8.4, and salinity 1.024-1.026.

Diet
While symbiotic zooxanthellae provide some nutrients through photosynthesis, ‘Arctic Yellow’ Goniopora corals are filter feeders and require supplemental feeding. Offer small planktonic foods such as microplankton, phytoplankton, or coral-specific blends (e.g., Reef Roids) 1-2 times a week to support optimal health, growth, and vibrant color.
